1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Previous research has indicated that chronic inflammation plays a significant role in the development of coronary artery ectasia (CAE). However, there is limited data on the role of plasma fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (PFAR) in CAE patients. Our study aimed to explore the connection between PFAR and the presence of CAE. Materials and Methods: This research used a case-control methodology. We included a total of 108 consecutive patients who had CAE without any stenosis. Among them, there were 65 males and 43 females, with a mean age of 58.2 ± 8.5 years. The control group included 102 consecutive participants with angiographically normal coronary arteries, consisting of 62 males and 40 women, with a mean age of 57.3 ± 8.6 years. Statistical analyses were conducted using Student's- Results: PFAR in the CAE group was significantly higher compared to the controls (84.8 ± 7.4 vs. 70.1 ± 9.5, Conclusion: In our study, we found that PFAR levels were notably higher in the CAE group compared to the control group, and we observed a significant correlation between PFAR and CAE.
